Strangers When We Meet
By David Bowie

A
All my friends

Now seem so thin and frail
           E
Slinky secrets
                D/#F
Hotter than the sun
   A
No peachy prayers

No trendy rechauffe
        E
I'm with you
    D/#F
So I can't go on

Chorus:
 E
All my violence
   D          A
Raining tears upon the sheet
            E
I'm bewildered/resentful
 D          A
For we're strangers when we meet

        A
Blank screen TV

Preening ourselves in the snow
 E
Forget my name
   D/#F
But I'm over you
        A
Blended sunrise

And it's a dying world
       E
Humming Rheingold
    D/#F
We scavenge up our clothes
(Chorus)
     E        D/#F
Cold tired fingers
 D(no third)    
Tapping out your memories
             E    D/#F
Halfway sadness
 D(no third)
Dazzled by the new
         A
Your embrace 

Was all that I feared
              E
That whirling room
       D/#F
We trade by vendu

     E
Steely resolve 
         D      A
Is falling from me
    E
My poor soul
 D          A
All bruised passivity
 E
All your regrets
       D             A
Ride rough-shod over me
       E
I'm so glad
            D                A
That we're strangers when we meet
        E
I'm so thankful
            D                A
That we're strangers when we meet
        E
I'm in clover
                D      A
That we're strangers when we meet
           E
Heel head over
             D              A
And we're strangers when we meet
